Survivors of last year's earthquake, which left more than three million homeless, line up to receive supplies to make temporary shelters.

When October 8 came this year, Pakistanis of all stripes stopped to remember the earthquake that struck at 8:52 a.m. one year ago, killing more than 70,000 people.

For most, it's been a year of remorse and reflection, gratitude for the rush of relief that poured in from around the country and around the world. For others, it's been a time of disappointment, even anger; and some feel downright betrayed. President Gen. Pervez Musharraf, armed with more than $6 billion in aid pledges from the international community, vowed to build back and build better. About one-third of that aid is in the hands of the government, with $500 million already dispersed to help families rebuild their homes. But close to 2 million people are still living in temporary shelters, according to a contested assessment by Oxfam, the international relief agency.
